Man Utd Sends Message to Newcastle Amid Sesko’s Bid

Manchester United have reportedly sent a clear message to Newcastle United regarding their pursuit of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško: “We are also in the race.”

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, United are determined to show they have the financial power to compete for top targets, not just with Newcastle, but with any club.

The Red Devils have been locked in a transfer battle with the Magpies for the highly-rated Slovenian international, with both clubs submitting bids to RB Leipzig.

Newcastle have reportedly tabled an improved offer of €80 million plus add-ons, but United’s response, as relayed by Romano, suggests they are not backing down.

While the Magpies have been aggressive in their pursuit, United’s message is a declaration that they are serious about their intentions and will not be outbid.

This saga is seen as a test of Manchester United’s new transfer strategy under their revamped ownership structure.

By actively engaging in a bidding war, they are demonstrating their commitment to competing for the world’s best talent and proving they have the funds to do so.

The ball is now firmly in Šeško’s court, with both clubs awaiting his final decision.
